      Writer John Howell travels to Sutherland, Georgia, to pen a biography, but his journalistic instincts are revived by the mysterious events taking place. This suspenseful thriller combines the elements of a crime story with the supernatural. Tom Stechschulte's superb reading grabs the listener's attention through every exciting and spooky scene. His perfectly paced narration sets the mood for pulse-pounding action sequences and eerie, goosebump-inducing ghostly appearances. Stechschulte portrays several characters using authentic Southern dialects that are slightly different for each. Listeners will be captivated by Stechschulte's brilliant performance. M.H.S.

      The Edgar Award-winning author of Chiefs (basis of a TV miniseries) and the bestselling Deep Lie now offers a highly readable if somewhat overheated thriller-cum-gothic that includes murder, drug smuggling, faith healing, hallucinations, revenants and incest. A one-time ace reporter rents a cabin in a backwoods Georgia town, then stumbles upon and determines to solve the town mystery, which involves a seemingly affable sheriff, an autocratic town father and an incest-ridden family whose once-prosperous farm now lies under a lake. He joins forces with a plucky female reporter bent on proving that the sheriff is "dirty,'' and there's never a dull moment as the story surges toward its exciting climax. The conclusion is a little too far-fetchedbut by that time readers have had more than their money's worth. Major ad/promo; Literary Guild and Doubleday Book Club alternates.
